While much of the Murray LLC property remains forested,
about 30% is formally set aside for tree farming. Most
years, strong winds in the Enumclaw area down timber, which
is then harvested for commercial sale. Besides the "windfall
profits" provided by these storms, damaged or diseased
trees are also downed using more conventional methods and
sold for lumber or firewood.

More recently, root rot
infestations have required harvesting and replanting
sections of land with more resistant trees, such as the
white pine planted in
March 2006.
